A different kind of “in the know”
When entering the library yesterday morning, I was pleasantly surprised to see Cari with her niece Amanda.
I had met Cari with Amanda at the playground the previous week and had told her about library mondays.
We all had a wonderful time singing and listening to story time as usual and before leaving Cari asked for my number.
Cari: “Claudia, can I get your number? You seem to be the mom in the know”.
A quick flashback went through me.
Not too long (but yet what seems to be lifetime ago) when I worked retail, I was the one my co-workers would refer customers and hotel guests to.
Back then, I was in the know of the hottest clubs, restaurants, lounges, anything that had to do with going out on this beach on any day of the week.
How my life has changed, I quickly thought to myself.
Me: “When did that happen?”
Now I’m in the know of library mondays, afternoon pool tuesdays at Sebastian’s, meet-up beach thursdays, music classes, free museum days, diapers, cereal, strollers, bottles, blankets….anything that has to do with babies.
A big smile came across my face….thank you Lily! 🙂

Life really does change when the sweeties enter it. Then it continues to change as they get older and it goes by so fast, feels like a whirlwind. I wouldn’t have it any other way!
I love the family shot in the post below.
